Red Johnson's Chronicles is an action adventure/puzzle game that is played out similarly to a television crime show - sort of like 'Professor Layton meets CSI.' In the game, players take on the role of Red Johnson, a private investigator on the streets whose crime rate is skyrocketing. They must use clues, solve puzzles and question witnesses to investigate a murder, all while staying out of danger's way.

The PC version of Red Johnson's Chronicles features a brand new gameplay, adapted for PC, an original storyline that leads you throughout the dangerous streets of Metropolis, dialogs written and played with humor, lots of puzzles to solve.
